YES! - Townesw You might want to send him a private message to see if he will share his design/measurements with you. Good luck! Bill

A drop of Loctite (blue) should take care of that issue. Bill -
If you camp at dcsp after camp Oliver, your tanks should be empty and fresh water full. However, if you need water at Meriwether it is available. Just look at the water fountain closely and you will find a spigot where you can attach a hose. The water fountain is located right in front of the campground restroom. Bill

Assuming that you are referring to the maximum length that is cited for camping spots - then - the figure given is for the RV/travel trailer only (i.e. does not include the length of the tow vehicle). Bill

Have a great time! Don't be afraid or too courteous to approach anyone you see to just say hello or ask a question - I've never met an Oliver person that wasn't anything but kind and helpful. From what I've seen over the past months, you guys are as prepared as you can be. But, you will still be fed a bunch of information in a short period of time. Make sure that you give yourself some "relaxing" time. Bill

Have you talked to Oliver Service?

My 2023 F-150 Lariet with just about everything on it except the sunroof stickered at about $75,000 and my out the door was just north of $72,000. Bill

There was at least one Oliver Elite II that has tank heaters. It was ordered by a guy from South Carolina that did what I believe was oil shale work in the northeast during the winter. Bill

This too has been discussed here on the Forum many times. Oliver did produce 4 Olivers (red, blue, black) plus, of course the white ones we all know and love. Simply put - the man-power cost of adding color as compared to the volume of units produced simply didn't make economic sense. This primarily is due to the need to get every spec of color out of the equipment and environment where the shells are manufactured prior to producing anything of a different color. Bill

Even though this topic of hitch height has been covered many times before here on the Forum - your best bet is to call or email your Oliver Sales Agent and ask - "how high off the level ground should my hitch ball be?". Ford does not require you to have a WDH with the 250. And, Olivers do not sway. Bill

My bet is - yes. Bill

I'm next door just on the other side of the mountains in Western North Carolina. Bill

I get all the "Nose Art" I can handle when I see all of those bugs that I've got to clean off!🤣 Seriously - this is the reason I have opted to NOT have a decal on the front of Twist - it is a bit more easier removing bug guts off gel-coat versus off a decal over gel-coat. Bill

there are a ton of these available HERE Bill

New Oliver Delivery Walkaround Videos on YouTube?

I'd bet that Matt is presently working his butt off showing the Olivers down in Georgia. Probably will not be back in the office until Tuesday and then will be trying to play "catch-up". Bill -
First "extended" trip, last minute planning...

From what I've heard - there is a ton of boondocking in and around that area. You might go on over to YouTube and type in the search box something like Moab boondocking. Good luck! Bill -
With the type of pipe insulation I pointed you to, you can simply apply it to a pipe that you can access and then push/slide it along that pipe until it will not slide anymore. This allows you to "reach" into areas without tearing things apart. To do your heat tape you will need very close access to each pipe - that will be very difficult given the time constraints you originally mentioned.

There are a few owners that have name their Oliver - Olive. I believe that one of them had the "third brake light" decal changed to that. And, of course, there is at least one Oliver named Olivia. Bill p.s. Almost any print shop/sign shop worth its weight can easily make a hull number decal for you and they are fairly easy to apply too.

Thanks. Actually, its funny watching peoples faces while they think about it. This is especially so for English teachers. Bill

I don't normally name vehicles, campers, motorcycles, etc. But - one morning prior to taking delivery my wife and I were sitting at the breakfast table and she said that I have to name the Oliver. I said "why" and she (three times in a row) said "because". Well, after that third time My "husband alarm bells went off" and I (finally) realized that she was actually trying to tell me something - "duh". So, I said, "OK, what should I name it". She replied, "Twist". Well, it took me about 30 seconds of sitting there with a more than usual dumb look on my face before I figured it out.
-
Glad that things went well. You might want to contact Oliver to let them know that you (or Magnus) are the new owner so that you will be notified in the unlikely event of a recall or service notice. Enjoy the heck out of it! Bill

Nice - but - You could up the ante by getting rid of that "tin" RV and getting yourself one of THESE
